The effect of swimming exercise on the diaphragm of the rat
Twelve adult male rats were used. Six rats were randomly selected to serve as control and six as exercised animals. The exercised rats underwent a swimming programme. Swimming exercise appeared to have little effect upon the cross sectional areas of type I and type II muscle fibres. The mean volume...

Twelve adult male rats were used. Six rats were randomly selected to serve as control and six as exercised animals. The exercised rats underwent a swimming programme. Swimming exercise appeared to have little effect upon the cross sectional areas of type I and type II muscle fibres. The mean volume of myonucles and the capillary length per unit volume of muscle was found to be significantly increased. |
